“Nice little hotel in the outskirts of Makry Gialos”
We loved the staff in this hotel! There were raki and cake (and water) waiting for us in our room and upon arrival we were offered some juice by the lovely grandmother. The room was very clean and tidy. We happened to be here sadly during the wildfires in Ierapetra region so we maybe didn't get to enjoy the surroundings as much as we would have otherwise done due to the strong winds and the constant tracking of the fires, but we felt safe at the hotel.

“Superbe , with amazing sea view”
The position, the facilities, there's a kitchen if you want to cook and dinner in the apartment, even though the price at the restaurants were sooo cheap, then you can afford it. The swimming pool is a super plus!!!
